CHAPTER MARRIAGE BELLS.
The preparations for Amy Brendon's
marriage had meanwhile gone on apace.
Ali was getting fast ready now; and her
Hussar, Horace Musgrave, looking hand
some and more like Hussar than ever,
even after his woeful "smash up' in the
hurdle race, had come to Stockencross,
accompanied by his groomsman, one of
the Princes Own-with bracelet for the
bride; one OF the most beautiful Bond
street could furnish-and taken up his
quarters with his kinsman at Ravens
bourne hall. There, too, had come the
bright Hilda Tremayne, with ber-it is
difficult to say-choice (she had smiled
on so MANY, whose initials had caused
such dismay to Amy in the past time.
So the wedding-day came at last; q
bright and clear day, early in December
The whole village Of Stockencross
was astir betimes; and col
ored notices, gsrlands Of false flowers
ana briaht streamers gave pictures que
appearance to the little street overlooked
by the ancient church Oh its green knoll.
Amy had but two attendants, Melanie
and Miss Aurora Pugwasb, judiciously In
vited to bea bridesmaid by Mr.. Brendon,
as the daughter Of very wealthy parish
Toner, whose wedding gift far, Ear
eclipsed the poor offering Of Melanie.

love in secret was lost to him more thar

In his dumb despair he now realized to
the full how great and how futile that
love had been. Those two were together
now; ere long they would pass side by
side from the altar where her father had
given her away; and ere long the new
made bridegroom would be worshiping
the bright beauty Of her sunny little lace,

The Beginnings of a Poet.
w. H. Rideing in St. Nicholas.

w. n. hlQelnS IN SC. NlchOIaS.
Whittier began to rhyme very early
and kept his gift a secret from all, ex.
cept his Oldest sister, feeling that his
father, who was a prosalc man, would
think that he was wasting time He
wrote under the fence, in the attic in
the barn-wherever he could escape
observation; and as pen and ink were
not always available he sometimes
used chalk: and even charcoal. Great
was the surprise OF the family when
some of his verses were unearthed,
literally unearthed, from under heap
Of rubbish in a garret, but his father
frowned upon these evidences of the
bent of his mind, not out OF unkind-
ness, but because he doubted the suf-
fciency of the boys education for
literary life, and did not wish to in
spire him witlG hopes which night
never be fulfilled.
His sister had faith in him, never
theless, and Without his knowledge
she sent one OF his poems to the edi-
tor of the Free Press, newspaper
published in Newburyport. Whittier
was helping his father to repair q
stone wall by the roadside when the
carrier flung q copy of the paper to
him, and. unconscious that anything
of his was in it, he opened it and
glanced up and down the columns.
His eyes fell on some verses called
"The Exile's Departure"
Fond scenes, which delighted my youthful
existence.
With feelings OF sorrow I bid ye adieu-
A lasting adieu; for now, dim in the dis.
The shores OF Hibernia recede from my
view.
Farewell to the cliffs, tempest-beaten and
gray,
Farewell to the village and sail-shado we'd
bay,
The fcrest-crowded hill and the. water
washed strand.
His eyes swan, 1t was his own,poem.
the first he ever had in print.
''EWhat is the matter with bhee?'
his father demanded, seeing how
dazed he was; but though he resumed
his work on the wall. he could not
speak, and he had to steal aeglance at
the paper again and again before he
could convince himself that he was
not dreaming. Sure enough, the poem
was there with his initis at the foot
of it-"W., Haverhill, June. 1, 1885,"
and better still, the editorial notice:
.If 'W.,' at Haverhlll, will continue to
favor us with pieces beautiful as the
one inserted in our political depart
ment OF to-day, we shall esteem it a
favor"
The editor thought so ,much of ''The
Exile's Departure and some other
verses which followed it, from
the same hand that he re.
solved to make the aequaint-
ance of his new contributor. and he
drove over to see.him. Whittier, then
boy of.eighteep,was summoned from
the fields where he was, working, clad
only in shirt, trousers and. straw hat,
and having slipped in, att uhe back
door SO that he might put his shoes
and coat on, came into the TO ON with
shrinking diffidence, almost unable to
'sspeak, and blushing Ikea maiden"
The editor Was q young maN himself,
not more than twenty-two.o OR twenty
three, and the friendship, that began
with this visit lasted until death end
ed it. How strong andi hcw close. it
was and how itrwas made, tD serve the

How to Address the Ruler of the
United dStates--A Little History

How to Address the Ruler of the
United States--A Little History.
From st. Nicholas.
1t was not at all strange that, after
their sad experience under monarchi.
cal rule, the early Americans should
have disliked everything that savored
OF royalty. This spirit found express
sion in the constitution itself. 1t was
distinctly provided that "No title OF
nobility shall be granted by the Unit.
ed States" The question was raised
as to what "titles it will be proper to
annex to the Offices Of President and
vice president of the United States; il
any other than those given in the con-
stitution?" and this matter was deem
ed Of sufficient Importance to receive
the attention OF a special joint COM
mittee of both houses. This commit
tee reported that the president sh ould
be addressed as "his excellency." The
senators would mot agree to the
report. A committee of conference
was then appointed, and report
ed "that, in the opinion Of the com.
mittee, it will be proper thus to ad-
dress the President: His highness,
the President of the United States OF
America, and Protector OF their liber-
ties The members Of the house would
consent to nothing OF the kind. The
result Of the whole matter is shown in
the resolution passed by the senate
on the 18th OF May, 1889, which held:
It would be proper to annex a re-
spectacle title to the Office OF Presi-
dent of the United States; but the
Senate, desirous OF preserving harmo-
ny with the house of represen tatives.
where the practice lately observed in
presenting An address to the Presi-
dent was without the addition of IT,
ties, think it proper, Tor the present,
to act in conformity with the prac-
tice of that house: Therefore
Resolved, That the present address
be: ITO the President t of the United
States" J" without addition of title.
That resolution has never been, dis
turbed, and there is no legislative au-
thority for any other address than
the one so adopted. High-sounding
titles are hardly in good taste in a
republic.
